Great dystopian world
I read this book some years ago, but it's one of those that kind of sticks with you. Especially in the crazy, chaotic world that we live in now, since around November 2016. This is the beginning of a dystopian trilogy that spawned a 4 part movie saga starring Jennifer Lawrence. If you haven't seen the movies, you should. They are pretty great and so are the books.

I’m chilled by the sensational dystopian sci-fi thriller Snowpiercer (2013), now streaming (finally) on Netflix UK
While it works well as a dystopian action thriller, it’s a much more complex and layered film than it may appear at first glance. There are moments of comedy (both light and pitch black), subversion, searing social commentary and shocking violence and although the film isn’t afraid to wear its bleak, nihilistic heart on its sleeve, it does so without alienating or disengaging the viewer....

I received this book in exchange for an honest review. This was part of a young adult dystopian box set and I have to say that I am glad that I started with this book. I really enjoyed it.
This was an extremely quick read that kept me captivated for hours. I found myself invested in the characters. This novel is not your typical dystopian book. It deals with mind readers and a society that is scared of evolution. The fact that this was not a stereotypical dystopian really surprised me. I liked the characters and I liked the content. I'm glad that I was able to sit down and take time to read this young adult novel.
Ultimately, I enjoyed this novel. I will definitely continue on in the series and I am excited to read the rest of the box set.
